IQB Boot Camp: Practical Cryo-Electron Microscopy
12th Interdisciplinary Quantitative Biology BOOT CAMP
PRACTICAL CRYO-ELECTRON MICROSCOPY
Date: January 12-16, 2026
Location: Proteomics Building, Busch Campus, Rutgers University
The Interdisciplinary Quantitative Biology Boot Camp focusing on Practical Cryo–Electron Microscopy is a hands-on program in which participants learn and perform cryo-EM techniques in small groups under the guidance of a team of experts.
Every attendee will operate electron microscopes, vitrify samples, and process single-particle data.
Skills you will learn:
- Vitrification
- Transmission electron microscopy alignment
- Cryo-EM data collection
- Single-particle data processing
This boot camp can be taken in partial fulfillment of requirements to earn the Cryo-EM digital badge (credentials.rutgers.edu).
Registration:
This opportunity is open to researchers interested in using cryo-electron microscopy in their future work. Typical applications include pharmaceutical and biotechnology R&D or QA/QC.
Space is limited. Registration will close on December 13th.
